Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Disgusting how little coverage this is getting.
I used to side with Israel (you can check my history) but it's clear that Israeli people have given up on justice and fully embraced fascism.
This is literally what Israel has always been about; there was never any justice to give up on
Nah your diminishing the efforts of domestic Israeli opposition. It has been significantly weakened but your statement is unfair to people who tried. To truly change this we need both internal and external pressures and cooperation.
Someone who gets it.
Ideology oversimplifes, so that it can reduce the world to reacting .. but that is what mere-animals do.
I wish there was more the world could do, and would do, to help the good Israelis who oppose Netanyahu's "Israel", but are outnumbered, living in fear of their lives, within their own country..
but at this point, it looks like the kindest & most-responsible thing to do, would be to get them, and the Palestinians, and the Lebanese, and the Syrians, out from there, & let the violent-psychopaths just butcher each other, until none of them were left, & then go back to re-settle the destroyed-but-unpopulated place..
I'm saying that in bitterness: there's NO hope for well-rooted peace, until the DarkTriad/DarkTetrad authorities are removed for multiple-generations,
& there's no way to produce that result..
The only method that could have worked, in my eyes, in Palestine, would have been for the UN to be all the public-service, & to disallow ANY ideological-bias from ANY operation in the territory, for .. 3 generations?
Until the murder-objectivity-for-ideology's-supremacism people were all force-retired-out from influence..
Absolute neutrality, no zionism, no hamas, no islamism, no racism, no gender-racism, no skin-racism, no nothing, interfering with best-for-human-potential cultivation in civilization.
& it would definitely have taken 3 generations to accomplish, given human nature..
Here are a couple links which can show people that Jewish & zionist are competeing against each-other, while both have "Israel" as their identity-anchor:
( which is part of why Trump & Netanyahu get along: the same demolition of international-legal-constraint )
So, yes there absolutely are Jews, including Israeli Jews, opposed to Netanyahu's "Israel" and its genocide-enforcing..
..but one can simply go & try reading Daniel, Jeremiah, & Isaiah, & see where they stand re Netanyahu's "Israel" .. & anyone'll see:
there's no place in those Jewish prophets' religion for what his-kind's doing in their name..
Salut, Namaste, & Kaizen, Hoomin..

I remember your Zionist comments, this is impressive, what changes?
I never commented anything even remotely close to zionism. Israel is still the only place that at least tries to respect individual rights of it's society (like being gay).
The issue really is the change in utilitarian calculation as their spread of injustice and disruption in the region far outweighs their respect for individual freedoms thus it turned from a problematic net positive to a very clear net negative.

It isn't trying to respect individual-rights as much, any more: fascism & male-supremacism consistently go together..

I guess nothing change lol
You're only shining a light on part of the fascist machine here.
Fascism others all people. It's a divide and rule strategy applied to society. Women, minorities, disabled, gay, poor, trans...
Of course it includes gender supremacy, as well as racial, religious, philosophical supremacy etc. This is just another lever of power for fascists; a symptom, not the disease itself.
It's one of the most naked contradictions in fascism, Hitler wasn't Aryan. Women fascists are still male supremacists. People still vote for it.
